Notes

If the vehicle is not maintained according to

these specifications, this could result in serious

damage to the vehicle. Such damage is not

covered by the BMW New Vehicle Limited

Warranty.

Data memory

A variety of electronic components in your vehi-

cle include data storage devices, which store

technical information on the condition of your

vehicle, events and errors, either temporarily or

permanently. In general, this technical informa-

tion documents the condition of a component, a

module, a system or the surroundings:

> Operating conditions of system compo-

nents, e.g., fill levels.

> Status messages regarding the vehicle and

of its individual components, such as wheel

rpm/vehicle speed, response delay, lateral

acceleration.

> Malfunctions and defects in the major sys-

tem components, such as the lights and

brakes.

> Responses of the vehicle in special driving

situations, such as the deployment of an

airbag, the utilization of stability control

systems.

> Environmental conditions, such as

temperature.

These data are exclusively of a technical nature

and are used for the detection and correction of

errors, as well as the optimization of vehicle

functions. Motion profiles of traveled routes can

not be deduced from these data. If services are

required, such as repair services, service pro-

cesses, warranty claims and quality assurance,

then this technical information can be read out

by employees of service departments, includ-

ing the manufacturer, from the event and error

data storage devices by using special diagnos-

tic equipment. There, if necessary, you will

receive further information. After remedying an

error, the information in the error memory is

deleted or progressively overwritten.

When using the vehicle, situations are conceiv-

able in which this technical data, in conjunction

with other information, such as accident

reports, vehicle damage, witness statements,

etc. - possibly with the assistance of an expert -

could be traced to particular individuals.

Additional functions that are agreed upon

contractually with the customer, such as vehi-

cle tracking in case of emergency, permit the

transmission of certain vehicle data from the

vehicle.

Reporting safety defects

For US customers

The following only applies to vehicles owned

and operated in the US.

If you believe that your vehicle has a defect

which could cause a crash or could cause injury

or death, you should immediately inform the

National Highway Traffic Safety Administration,

NHTSA, in addition to notifying BMW of North

America, LLC, P.O. Box 1227, Westwood, New

Jersey 07675-1227, Telephone 1-800-831-

1117.

If NHTSA receives similar complaints, it may

open an investigation, and if it finds that a safety

defect exists in a group of vehicles, it may order

a recall and remedy campaign. However,

NHTSA cannot become involved in individual

problems between you, your center, or BMW of

North America, LLC.

To contact NHTSA, you may call the Vehicle

Safety Hotline toll-free at 1-888-327-4236

(TTY: 1-800-424-9153); go to

trator, NHTSA, 400 Seventh Street, SW.,
